a as far as which heads it has couldn't tell you nor have I looked. It would have whichever heads a standard K code 350 horse 440 that a 68 Imperial would have. As far as putting the EFI on instead of leaving a carb on it. It needed a new carb anyway, I looked into getting a replacement...

I have a 68 Imperial that has the original unmolested 440 that is bone stock & as far as I can tell has never opened up. That I am putting a Holley sniper 2 on. What's the deal with lead substitute is it needed for this motor or is there something else that I should run in it or just filler up...

will do

the reason I was looking to go with a 160 is. I am Installing a Sniper 2 EFI system I have been watching and reading a bunch of videos & install stuff about throttle body efi systems. There were 4 common items/issues people have come across. Makes sure the electrical install is done properly...

Basically I was hoping to find VR1 in 10-40 but they only had it in 10-30 or 20-50. so I just bought napa premium 10-40 & Lucas Oil TB Zinc Plus additive

what's everyone's opinion on engine oil for a 68 imperial with a 440. I am going to put in a 160 or 180 thermostat in it and it is due for an oil change just curious what the best oil for these. Should I go with 10-30, 10-40 or like a 15-40 diesel oil that has all the extra vitamins & minerals...

I almost went with fitech but ended up pulling the trigger on the Holley a couple days ago mainly for similar reasons you stated. I liked the fact that I can get their Hyperspark ignition & the in tank module.

I am going to see how the drop in module for the B body works & worst case scenario ill have to buy a B body tank & lose 4 gallons of fuel capacity. I'll let you guys know how things go. I ordered a holley sniper 2 kit today & a fuel pump/sending unit module for a B body

I am going to put a holley or fitech EFI on my 68 Imperial. From what I can find an inline fuel pump or a surge tank are my only options. I wanted to do an In tank retro fit module but there is not room to install one in the top of the tank unless I do some goofy stuff to drop the tank lower...

maybe my inquiry started the ball rolling because the person I talked to on the phone seemed surprised they didn't make the one for the RB engines

I talked to them earlier in the week & they currently dont have one for the RB engines the guy I talked to thought they did but once he got looking he said they only have one for the B engines but not the RB. The only one they make is a raised version for the RB which I think is pretty much a...

looking for a Weiand 8009 Action plus intake manifold for a RB motor. From what I have done research wise this is one of the best intake manifolds that is not taller or maybe its only a little taller than the factory cast intake as there is basically no room in my 68 Imperial engine bay for a...

what is the real scoop & what is truly needled to convert from R12. I had a leaking Schrader valve on my compressor so I lost my refrigerant charge so I had it evacuated & recharged with 134. It blows cool enough air for temps in the 80s to low 90s but isn't cold enough for when temps get to the...

ok thanks

let me know how they work looking at them they look like they have more clearance than other ones
